Curbcuts

Curbcuts are small, gentle slopes built into sidewalks at street crossings, allowing easy access for wheelchairs, strollers, bicycles, and pedestrians with mobility challenges. Originally designed to aid people using mobility devices, they also benefit others by making crossings smoother and more accessible. Curbcuts improve overall street usability, promote independence, and support inclusive urban design. Their widespread implementation reflects commitment to accessible infrastructure, ensuring that public spaces accommodate diverse needs efficiently and safely.
